Synopsis: | Sometimes the smallest collisions can shake worlds. RBS Productions creates two pieces of essential theatre, exploring chance encounters between strangers. In Vauxhall, Summer, 12:05pm 12:55pm, Karen and Paddy are caught in a current of unexpected attraction; in Albion Place, Winter, 10:20am 11:10am, Carl and Jordan compel each other to reassess their plans for the future. " . . . the extraordinary contained within the ordinary." For these two plays RBS Productions has adapted the playmaking strategies of theatre and film director Mike Leigh. The process involves developing a meticulously detailed background for each character. When the two characters are brought together, even the most commonplace of exchanges seem charged and nuanced by authentic, vivid past experience. " In this play the characters talk over the top of each other, interrupt, trail off, repeat themselves and stumble over words in a way that is closer to real speech than most scripted drama." | |||||
